Interventions

BEHAVIORALCollaborative Agenda-Setting Intervention

A collaborative agenda-setting intervention (CASI) to promote patient-centered communication, set agendas for discussion at in-clinic visits, increase discussion of psychosocial concerns, and reduce clinician burden. The intervention is integrated into the patient portal and electronic health record. Prior to a clinic visit, the intervention elicits patients' and caregivers' preferences and concerns, then communicates this information to clinicians. Patients, caregivers, and clinicians receive communication resources, while patients and caregivers receive tailored educational materials and navigation to supportive care services.
